Sex after Childbirth

When is the appropriate time to resume sex after childbirth? I noticed even after bleeding which is a few weeks, when my husband embraced me and desires for him began to grow, my body was stinging down there as if warning me it was not the right time.

I think it depends on the person. I know that doctors recommend nothing before 6 weeks afterwards but anytime after that I feel it is up to the person and how their body feels. I think it depends on the person's emotional state as well. Just take it slow and listen to what your body is telling you and decide what is right for you.
